This is a rather presumptuous bit of elitist bigoted trash. How about showing a picture of the actual woman and her actual home? —I didn’t compare her to Ellie May, she compared herself. You must think I’m near Milwaukee and can pop over there and take photos. Yeah, I’m in the Coloraddy Territory, but contrary to your presumption it isn’t all that close. -rc

I live fairly near them and the critter is small and rather cute. Looking at the article as an outsider, yeah, it does sound rather “hickish” but locally it does hurt a bit to be the butt of ridicule. No pun intended. The political side of the story is in the same vein as the kid being kicked out of school for having an allergy pill in their locker. Does anyone question that elected officials can be absolute “asses”? Yet they are allowed to live in the city. —You don’t “allow” them in, you invited them in by electing them! -rc
